TNA Wrestling has officially locked in the card for the January 1 episode of iMPACT, with a championship bout set to headline the New Year’s show. The episode will feature Frankie Kazarian putting the TNA World Championship on the line against Bear Bronson.
Bear Bronson secured his opportunity by winning a 20-man battle royal on last week’s episode of iMPACT. The victory positioned Bronson for the biggest singles match of his TNA career as he steps into the main event spotlight against the reigning champion.
Also announced for the show, TNA International Champion Stacks will appear alongside his fiancée, Arianna Grace, to address recent events involving Grace and her father, Santino Marella. The situation stems from Grace’s shocking betrayal following the Team TNA vs TNA NXT cage match on the December 18 episode of iMPACT.
The Knockouts division will be prominently featured with two matches confirmed. Angel Warriors will face The Elegance Brand in tag team action, while a six-Knockouts tag match will see Indi Hartwell, Jody Threat, and Jada Stone clash with Tessa Blanchard, Victoria Crawford, and Mila Moore.
Additional action will include Mustafa Ali going one-on-one with Home Town Man, rounding out a stacked card to kick off TNA’s 2025 calendar.
